...this bill... requires the attorney general to establish and maintain a database, called the adult content registry, of certain Internet sites containing material harmful to minors... ...$100,000 from the General Fund to the attorney general, for fiscal year 2005-06 only, to establish the adult content registry... They are going to create publicly accessible, highly available database service of the all the world's porn sites and maintain it with up to the minute data... with 100K. Right. Seems like a more rational answer to Utah's pr0n phobia is for a certain religious entity to publish their own net-nanny software/service for their parishioners. -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog () merit edu [mailto:owner-nanog () merit edu]On Behalf Of Rachael Treu Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2005 11:35 AM To: Bill Woodcock Cc: Richard Irving; Roy; Fergie (Paul Ferguson); nanog () merit edu Subject: Re: Utah governor signs Net-porn bill On Tue, Mar 22, 2005 at 09:33:44AM -0800, Bill Woodcock said something to the effect of:

Unfortunately, I do believe, on credible evidence, that there are people stupid enough to be trying to legislate the operation of the Internet without having first understood how it's done right now. Case in point. -Bill
What do you mean?! I'm writing an email right now to my service provider, demanding that I get *only* porn. I want all pr0n, all the time. No need to wast bandwidth on this smtp garbage, or any other http-type hooey, for that matter. I want my OPoIP (only porn over IP)! I want it secured, even! Encrypted porn with an SLA I can wave SLA about if anything else slips through like pesky news or children's pages or something icky. Are you telling me my provider reserves the right to refuse me this service? <sniff> --ra ;) -- k. rachael treu, CISSP rara () navigo com ..quis custodiet ipsos custodes?.. (this email has been brought to you by the letters 'v' and 'i'.)
